Charlotte bound

Getting on the plane for a 4 day photo shoot in Charlotte...just realized I forgot to put on makeup this morning, and I don't have any with me...uggh.

Southwest Michigan Hideaway

One of our favorite places to stay on the southwest coast of Michigan is at a Bed and Breakfast called Harbert House http://harberthouse.net/index.html , in Harbert, MI. Located near the Warren Dunes, this B & B is run by Nancy, who is wonderful chef from Chicago. The rooms are very comfortable, with a private bathroom in each room. If you have diet concerns, she is very accommodating to making sure her homemade food is perfect for each of you. Believe me; we have carnivores, vegetarians and someone with celiac disease in our family, not to mention picky children! Our entire family has rented all of the rooms and stayed for a week over the holidays! My in-laws now own a home nearby Nancy, but we still have friends and family stay there when we have an overflow at our home, and she has become such a part of our family that we invite her to our holidays. Just tell her Janice sent you!

Cupcakes in Cadillac!

I got word from my hometown of Cadillac, MI that there is a new sweet stop on the north side of town.  If you are in the neighborhood visit the bakery and deli on the north side called The Sweetest Things. In the bakery they make gourmet cupcakes with a variety of fillings. If you are in the mood for lunch, they also make wraps and panini's served on authentic Italian bread.

 

This is a brand new business with exciting flavors to try, and what a great way to support a local family business. The next time I'm up north you can bet I won't pass this one by! YUM!
